Joint European Master in Interdisciplinary Mathematics
The Joint European Master in Interdisciplinary Mathematics is an international, research-oriented graduate program jointly offered by leading European universities. Designed for highly qualified students seeking advanced academic training, the program integrates mathematics with applications in engineering, data science, physics, and computational sciences. Students benefit from a unique mobility structure, studying across multiple partner institutions, and gain hands-on experience in interdisciplinary modelling, numerical methods, and applied problem-solving. The program spans four semesters and admits students exclusively in the winter semester through the coordinating university in L’Aquila, Italy.
As a joint European initiative, the program provides a multicultural academic environment across campuses in Italy, Spain, France, Austria, and Germany. It emphasizes both theoretical excellence and the practical implementation of mathematical methods in real-world contexts. With strong research networks, international mobility, and collaborative academic structures, the program reflects Europe’s commitment to high-level mathematical education. This makes it an exceptional choice for students aiming to develop advanced interdisciplinary expertise within a global academic framework.
